Jute Matting

Erosion Control with Jute Netting

Jute matting is a natural product designed to offer short-term erosion control in low to moderate flow and slope areas. Often referred to as jute netting, our soil erosion matting has a woven mesh design that provides a large open area for planting and establishing vegetation. This helps to facilitate growth and prevents further erosion from occurring in your area.

Jute mesh is completely biodegradable and constructed from spun jute yarns. Due to the nature of the materials used for the blanket, the soil erosion matting matting is ideal for sensitive areas looking to control erosion or facilitate vegetative growth. Standard jute matting can be used on slopes up to 3:1 and flows up to 6 fps.

Soil Erosion Matting

In addition to the jute mesh shown above, GEI Works also offers several other erosion control matting options, including straw erosion control mats, coir fiber matting, and wood fiber blends.

Short-Term Projects: For short-term erosion control projects, the Straw Erosion Control Blanket is a favorite! These blankets feature a typical lifespan anywhere from 6 months to 2 years to temporarily control erosion in your location.

Long-Term Projects: For erosion control projects that are especially long term or used in demanding locations, the Coir Products are often the best available option. The high strength fibers can be used on steeper slopes, higher flow areas, or locations looking for long term erosion control. The typical life span of a coir mat is anywhere from 4 to 6 years.
